Anxiety and sleeplessness calms forte

[kimscollie]

Our golden retriever that we got from the Golden Retriever Rescue six months ago has some pretty serious anxiety issues at night. Most nights, at least once, and sometimes up to four times, he wakes us with his pacing and heavy panting around our bed. Calms Forte has been suggested to us. Has anyone else had experience with this herbal remedy? And does it help? Thanks!

I think Calms Forte is awesome. I've not yet used it for a pet though. However, homeopathic remedies are super safe and I would think it would probably be a good thing to try. If you're nervous about trying it with your dog, then I'd try to find a homeopath or naturopath that you could ask. I'm not sure about the dose. I would think you could gauge that by weight, but not positive. But anyway, I would give the Calms Forte (http://www.seacoastvitamins.com/product_info.php?products_id=1795) a try.

I've never heard of the stuff before. Is it anything like Serenity or Rescue Remedy?
